Aren't these headlights not compatible with NA law though? These were specifically made for left side driving from what I heard and they have different lighting regulations.
i think you can regulate them from up and down, not to tha left and right (it makes by manufactor)
i don't think anyone cares about the law when it comes to lights. I wouldn't care as long it works and doesnt harm anyone. Ive seen people with green headlights( pretty dumb ) also
Maybe shining into the eyes of everyone you encounter doesn't "harm" them, but it isn't cool, either.

thats what headlight height adjustment is for. i had to raise mine a good bit after lowering my car with the triple beam.
triple beam headlight is worth it even at 2k per headlight. its crazy how bright my lights are on the rc-f and have that expensive looking cut off line.
They look nice but they don't perform as well as stock 14-16 LED or the new 17 projector setup. Also keep in mind JDM cars drive on the other side of the road so the stock JDM uptick will light up the wrong side of the road in USDM market. Meaning unsafe/dangerous.
So if you retrofit, I would make sure they're from a car that drives on the same side of the road you do. and also realize its a cosmetic upgrade, not a functional one.
LED tech is still relatively new and evolving. For now, the small space allowed in these types of cars means its hard to get the kind of output desired. heat management, optics size, etc are hindered when you dont have a lot of space. Wait for the tech to get better!
Sorry to bring up an old post, but will the 2017 US spec ballasts work with her jdm triple beams? Or would we still need to get the specific jdm ballasts as well?

You ended up getting them!! (Noticed you asked about it 5 years ago)
Does it blind oncoming traffic?
haha yes i did! i installed them about a little over a year ago now and love it! it’s definitely brighter on the drivers side but not to the point where oncoming traffic would be blinded

If you don't mind, how much did it end up costing? And was it easy to source?
Also, does it have L to R adjustment or just up and down?
